Friday Five, the first meme I ever did is now gone and I do miss it. I am not sure why but memes are a really good thing for me right now. I have lots of things to write about, but I want to wait to become a little better of a writer to really make them justice. Memes allow me to be funny without feeling like I am trying too hard to. I love humor and love making people laugh, but I am not much of a writer of funny stories… at least not yet.

This week has been super busy at work, and I have barely had time to even think, but I love it when work gets that way. The workdays go by so much faster. I have been dealing with tons of data and it finally caught up to me and I had to clean up some space yesterday. Now the computer is running tons faster. But lets move on from that onto what is really bothering me. I miss having a bike, I got rid of my bike when I moved to Michigan and now I realize that it was not necessary to do so… but I am not about regret so just thinking of the future will be better… I do not want to get into debt by financing a brand new one but it is almost the only option I have now. I guess I will just be patient and wait for the right moment.

Riding a motorcycle is something that you cannot explain… you either get it or you don’t. It is a feeling that mixes freedom with empowerment… being one with the machine, but like I said, you have either experienced and loved it or not. Another thing about bikes is that they are an awesome way to relieve stress, only comparable to working out or martial arts… but to me riding a bike is at the top of the list and I miss that… I miss that way too much.

I am not depressed by any means, on the contraire I am actually very hopeful and wishful, that it will soon be summer and I will be riding again. And I also have the chance to be up in a cabin by a lake in a couple of months, which I know will be an excellent experience that will change me for the rest of my life… so I know this summer is going to be awesome.

1. Out of the corner of your eye you see something crawling across the desk – something with a lot of legs and antennae. Do you calmly flick it off with your fingers, smash it to a pulp or run screaming out of the room?
I calmly flick it onto my hand (or a peice of paper it seems something that could byte) and take it outside into the grass. If it is winter outside, then just flick it into the garbage can.

2. Lions, barracudas, sharks, eagles and tarantulas; predators all. What predator would you be (need not be from this list)?
Predator a Wolf for sure. But second on the list would be a big cat, a Jaguar 🙂

3. If you could have the attributes of one animal while retaining your human form, what would you pick? e.g. a bird’s flight, a snake’s venom, breathing underwater like a fish etc.
Probably a birds flight. Or maybe a bat better, being able to have that sonar radar has to be super cool along with flying.

4. If you had a choice to give up your life and its worries and responsibilities and be a bird – would you make the switch?
I don’t think so… I think that I can be myself and still be able to have fun and be carefree… that is what a motorcycle ride does for me, makes me a free as a bird.

Onesome- Beginnings:Are there any television shows out there that you’ve watched regularly from the very beginning? Or for those of you not into TV, any book authors that you’ve read from the very beginning?

Well, lets answer both. I have watched both Charmed and Smallville from the very beginning and will continue to do so. Most recently the OC. I think those are the only 3 shows I watch and since I TiVo them it is very convenient because I have mini marathons on the weekends. I also love to read and I have been reading the Harry Potter series from the beginning and will continue to do so even though I am upset at the death on book 5.

Twosome- Middles:What about shows that you came into in the middle of the season but immediately grabbed your attention and turned you into a die-hard fan? Again, for non-TV fans, have you ever begun reading a series of books in the middle and then just had to read everything else in the series?

I do not do that for the most part, but Friends I did not watch from the very begining and I watched until the end… actually I have the finale taped and will watch it soon. As far as books not really, most series I have started from the beginning… or the DaVinci code and Angels and Demons, if that is a series, because I read the code first and then went back to Angels and Demons.

Threesome- And Ends:Recently, a number of big name shows have ended, Friends, Fraiser, The Drew Carey Show, and the cult hit, Angel. Did you watch any of the big finales? Have you ever been really sad to see a show go? Ok, readers, here’s one for you. Have you ever read the end of a book first? Why? 😉

Friends I have taped… Fraiser I never really liked… Drew Carey only watched sporadically on late night TV. Angel did not even watch one episode nor did I watch Buffy. Even though I am a total Vamp fanatic I found it too highschool when I caught early episodes. I was really sad to see go Dark Angel… I was a big fan of that… and I guess Charmed is coming to an end too… I will be sad to see that go. I have not read the end of a book first that I can remember.

Week 1 – Animation.
Shrek 2 opens this weekend in theaters, hoping to be an even bigger hit than the prequel. From Antz, to Mulan, to The Lion King, to Heavy Metal, even Anime; There are hundreds of animated movies.

1. What is your favorite animated movie?
I would have to go with Toy Story… even though it is hard to chose. Runners up would be Ice Age and Monsters INC. And I am leaving anime out of here, because that is just a totally seperate genra IMHO.

2. Which animated movie is your least favorite?
Antz

3.your favorite Who is animated movie character?
I would have to say that my fav character ever is Genie from Aladin.
